2.2 Tecnologa usada:
Alstoms Chilled Ammonia post-combustion technology chosen for testing at
TCM is consists of separating CO2 from the exhaust gases using chilled ammonia
as the solvent to absorb the CO2.
Chilled ammonia technology, although less widely used than amine technology, holds potential for
lower energy consumption per tonne of CO2 captured. This process will be tested at large scale at
TCM, and if this technology can be qualified, it will provide the world with a proven technology with
reduced costs.

How does the technology work?

Flue Gas Cooling:

The exhaust gas, or flue gas is passed through a flue gas conditioning unit to condense the water
and residual emissions which reduces the volume of gas to be treated and thereby reducing the
size of equipment necessary.
